Who wrote the SSL Sniffer?
The SSL Sniffer was written by Eu-Jin Goh, under the supervision of Professor Dan Boneh in Stanford University Applied Crypto Group. The Sniffer was written from scratch, referring to the specs in the RFC 2246. The certificate chain parsing functions in the sniffer were taken partly from the OpenSSL libraries 0.94 written by Eric Young and partly from Professor Boneh’s code which also used the OpenSSL libraries.
